One of the designers who made it happen

Thank you for a job well done. Provided quick results, and offered valuable suggestions and alternatives. Would definitely work with Pop Art again in the future.

How AllenRoberts started their logo design journey

Company name

Roberts Oil and Land Company

Overview

Roberts Oil and Land Company (please feel free to use Roberts Oil & Land Co., Roberts Oil & Land, or other variations with "and" and with or without "company") is a privately owned family investment company that focuses on oil and gas and real estate investment opportunities. We are located in Shreveport, Louisiana and conduct business in the states of Texas and Louisiana.

Family has been in oil & gas industry for 3 generations. Oil and gas industry is in our blood. Additionally, we have branched out into real estate over the years. Currently 3 employees. My dad, my brother, and myself. All 3 of us attended University of Texas. We take a lot of pride in our heritage as well as our family's name - Roberts. We like working as a family and we enjoy the personal feel of owners answering the phone.

Personal info: We are professional and work hard, but enjoy recreational weekends hunting, fishing, boating, and flying with family. Our family has a great appreciation for the outdoors, particularly involving Texas ranches and Louisiana farms. We like being from Louisiana and appreciate its culture, but also love Texas and its heritage. We all 3 are pilots of small airplanes and enjoy flying. Also, we have ranch in texas where we might use this logo / brand...

Tell us a bit about who you are and the people you reach

The logo/brand is less about new customers or new marketing strategy. This is an old company with an established business. We just need a new look and a kick-ass logo/brand to go on our business cards, letterhead, stationary (and possibly website). Our audience will be our existing partners, which includes investors, bankers, attorneys, land owners, other oil and gas and real estate developers, etc.

Requirements

I have an open mind and encourage you to be creative, but here is brief description of things that might interest us, however, these are not mandatory or required:

-We like classic, traditional, clean and simple, but we also like attractive and appealing - elegant and refined.

-We like the idea of using the initial of our name "R" in some kind of way for a brand or logo

-We like the idea of designing a "brand" - think of a brand used for branding cattle or horses on a ranch (by the way - we do not brand animals - we just own land for recreation).

-We like the idea of just using the company's name and spelling out Roberts Oil and Land Company in a way that could be used as a logo?

-Please do not feel like you must use only our name or the initial "R". I am open to any design, symbol or figure.

--We do not like big, busy, animated logos or cartoon characters.

-We need a logo/brand for our oil & gas and real estate company. But we could also use a logo/brand for our ranch. It may be cool if we could get a logo or a brand that we could use for our business and our ranch.
